“These two teams are the best in Guyana so in realty these are Demerara ‘A’ and ‘B’ teams and are both good enough to beat the combined Essequibo team and the team from Berbice and we expect that at least one of them will qualify for the final,” Deonarine added.
The final will be played under lights just before the feature event, a t20 contest involving some of the best t20 players in the Caribbean commences at 19:30hrs.
The winner of the softball ‘open’ final will battle for $500,000 and a trophy in the five-match softball event.

Beharry is the President of the Berbice Cricket Board and has represented Berbice in senior Inter-County hardball 50-over cricket as a big hitting left-hander and left-arm spinner.
“Of course I will be playing for my home county and I encourage all Berbicians to come out in your numbers and support the Berbice softball teams and the Berbicians in the t20 match,” stated Beharry.
